Caching_password__user_and_group_on_a_roaming_Debian_laptop.html

It looks like sssd and libpam-ccreds are tools for locally caching remote 
authentication and authorization information to allow laptop users to log 
in locally while disconnected from the network.

It's interesting stuff, but unfortunately I neglected to mention that I'm 
also using OpenAFS, which means that the home directories are also 
remote, so I really do need a network connection before I can log in.

Thanks anyway!

Cheers,

Jaap
